re: I don't think I've ever been so excited about a season before

True...I say this every year, but I was honestly having trouble finding ANY loses on our schedule this year. This was preseason and based on what we appeared to be on paper, of course.

I used to love Les because of the person I thought he was, not just any marginal successes he had on the field. At this point, he's making me dislike him, and that's really too bad. I don't expect him to opt out of millions to keep our spirits up, but I do or did expect him to earn his paycheck and give us something to be proud of. For God's sake, our state is flooded, again...thousands have lost their homes, again.

None of this is even taking into consideration what he's doing to the college playing days and very likely even the NFL prospective futures of the kids he's recruited and promised many things to. Les has lied...he's still lying. And I've been following nearly every player on our roster since they were sophomores and juniors in high school. Watching them pick my Tigers at the end of their recruitment makes me as proud as anything can. I'm pulling for them as hard as I am anything else.

Les is not JUST inept...he's lazy and careless. He's not giving it his all at this point. His IQ would have to be below 100 to not see what EVERYONE else sees in our offense, and I can't be convinced that he's truly that unintelligent. I feel like he's stealing from us, and that's pathetic when his what's now former reputation hinged on him being a great man.
